The American Foreign Policy Council (AFPC) is a non-partisan, non-profit organization dedicated to advancing the national security and foreign policy interests of the United States. Founded in 1982 and based in Washington, D.C., its foreign and defense policy specialists provide information to members of the US Congress, the Executive Branch, and the US policymaking community.

AFPC provides analysis and policy recommendations on global strategic issues, with a particular focus on defense (missile defense, arms control, energy security, espionage), international relations, and the promotion of democracy.
